FOLLOW YOUR DREAM REFLECTIONS

Beginning Sunday, March 22, I’m introducing a new dimension to the podcast called Follow Your Dream Reflections - short observations drawn from my many conversations with remarkable creative artists from around the world.

From time to time I’ll share these reflections on creativity, collaboration, and the artistic life.

The first two Reflections are: The Self-Starters and The Virtuous Creative Loop


CURRENT PODCAST EPISODE

5th Anniversary Celebration!

Hi everybody, and welcome to our 5th Anniversary celebration! 

I started this podcast during the pandemic when musicians like me could neither perform nor even rehearse. I needed something creative to do, and someone suggested to me that I should start a podcast. But I had no idea what that was. I had never even listened to one.

But the more I looked into it the more I thought why not give it a shot. I had no audience and no guests, but I did have an idea - to encourage people to follow their dream, just as I had followed my youthful music dream later in life.

So on March 21, 2021 I aired my first show. My guest was “Cousin Brucie” Morrow, America’s most famous radio personality, a friend of mine and a true National Treasure. Bruce introduced the Beatles at Shea Stadium in 1965! And from there I was off to the races.

The show started to catch on and grow. It took two years to get to 1 million downloads. Today we’re at 4.5 million downloads with listeners on every continent in 200 countries! 

I’ve now released over 725 episodes. My guests are all world class creative artists - musicians, actors, authors, directors, photographers, storytellers, even poets. 

My interviews are conversations, with humor and respect. And I’m pleased to say that some of my guests have become musical collaborators with me as well, which is the icing on the cake.

I want to thank you, the audience, for making this show so popular.  I look forward to year 6. As I like to say, keep on rockin - and we’ll see you in the next episode.
